CHEF JOHN'S CHICKEN UNDER A BRICK RECIPE | ALLRECIPES



Chef John's Chicken Under a Brick Recipe | Allrecipes image

You should use a big cast iron pan for this, but it will also work in a high-quality, heavy-duty stainless steel pan, or other oven-proof skillet. The key is to heat it very well before the chicken goes in. Other than that, there's really no way to screw it up, unless you under or overcook it, which won't happen, since you're going to check it with the thermometer.

Total Time 1 hours 10 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 40 minutes

Yield 1 whole chicken

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (3 1/2) pound whole chicken, wings removed
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch herbes de Provence, or to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, or as needed
2 heavy clay bricks, wrapped tightly in aluminum foil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Use kitchen shears to cut down both sides of the backbone. Remove backbone and discard. Cut through breastbone from the inside until chicken folds out like a book and lays flat.
  • Season chicken all over with salt and black pepper, and sprinkle herbes de Provence on the inside. Let chicken sit for 20 to 30 minutes at room temperature; pat dry with paper towels. Brush skin-side of chicken with oil and season again with salt and black pepper.
  • Heat an oven-proof cast iron skillet over high heat until very hot, about 5 minutes. Place chicken, skin-side down, in hot skillet and place bricks evenly on top to weigh down chicken.
  • Roast chicken in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Remove bricks, turn chicken over, and continue roasting until juices run clear and meat is no longer pink at the bone, 5 to 15 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Preheat the oven's broiler and broil the chicken until skin is crispy and golden, 1 to 3 minutes.

CHICKEN UNDER A BRICK RECIPE - NYT COOKING
It isn't easy to cook chicken so that its skin is crisp and its interior juicy. Grilling, roasting and sauteing all have their problems. But there is an effective and easy method for getting it right, using two ovenproof skillets. A split chicken is placed in one of them, skin side down. The other skillet goes on top as a weight, which helps retain moisture and insures thorough browning. A couple of clean rocks or bricks can be used instead of the second skillet. (If the weight of choice doesn't seem terribly pristine, it can be wrapped in foil.)

Serve hot or at room temperature, with lemon wedges.

CHICKEN UNDER A BRICK RECIPE | SOUTHERN LIVING
Crispy chicken and cast-iron skillet potatoes work together in this juicy brick chicken recipe that's perfect for weeknight dinners and supper club, alike. Using the weight of a cast-iron skillet filled with potatoes, the dish uses a "chicken under a brick" technique to push the chicken flat against your hot grill grates. This method not only cuts your cooking time in half, but it also helps sear in the chicken's flavor and juices while creating a perfectly brown, crispy skin. Better yet, there's no juggling three pans on the stove while the chicken is on the grill with this recipe. Your side dish will cook at the same time. Now that just might give new meaning to the phrase, "two birds, one stone," if you ask us.

  • Preheat oven to 500°. Pat your chicken totally dry with a paper towel and place it on a cutting board, breast side down. Using kitchen shears or a very sharp knife, cut out the backbone of the chicken. Flip the chicken over and press down on the upper breast of the chicken until the bird now lays flat on the board (you should hear a cracking or popping noise). This is called spatchcocking and will give an even surface area to help ensure crisp skin. Rub the chicken with 1 tbsp of olive oil and season liberally with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Let sit at room temp for 20 minutes. Preheat a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat for 3 minutes. Add the remaining olive oil and let heat in the pan for additional 30 seconds. Place your chicken into the pan, skin side down, making sure to press the chicken down so that you are getting as much contact with the pan as possible. Place foil covered bricks or another cast iron skillet on top of the chicken. Let sear for 5 minutes. Transfer the chicken (with weights) to the oven and roast for 15 minutes. Remove chicken and weights. Flip chicken and return to the oven for another 10 minutes or until the thickest part of chicken reads an internal temp of 165°F. Place the chicken on a platter to rest. Move the cast iron skillet with browned bits to the stove and heat over medium heat. Add shallot and jalapeño and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the wine and lime juice and scrape up any remaining browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat to low and add the butter, stirring until the sauce has taken on a glossy sheen. Stir in the cilantro and cook until incorporated, about 30 seconds. To serve, place the chicken either back in the skillet or on a serving platter, and then pour sauce over top.

Gonna flip our chicken and put it back in for another 10 minutes at 500. Basically as soon as the chicken gets out of the oven. We're going to move the chicken to a platter. So we can focus 100% on that sauce and get all the fat and the schmalts and the sticky stuff on the bottom of the pan into our sauce.
